The Hatched plan (creative story)

Kia ora today we had to write a story about a picture it was a snowy night and we had to make a story out of it. Here is what I wrote let me know what you think.

A pitch black sky with trees that reach the sky almost touching the stars with snow gliding onto the trees. The dark trees stretch over to the other side of the house with snow already covering the branches. The white fluffy snow covering the grass and shining from the light of the warm fire on the inside of the house. Little Timmy asleep in the second floor of the house waiting for footsteps on his roof.

Suddenly little Timmy heard thumping footsteps just above him quickly he jumped up in his dark blue pyjamas. There were no more footsteps on the roof Santa knew that he was awake and rushed away before he could be seen. Little Timmy set up a trap to catch Santa he put out trip wire attached to a bell. He fell a sleep and then he heard the bell ring he ran down stairs but he only seen his cat.

Timmy looked to his left and seen Santa staring at him with a angry look. Then he took out his long list found Timmy's name and put him onto the naughty list. Timmy ran back up stairs crying himself back to sleep. He had a bad dream that he stayed on the naughty list and never got off of the naughty list.

Then he woke up and looked down stairs under the tree and there were presents reaching up to the roof. He questioned why there were presents when he seen Santa write his name on the other list. Then he realised he might have put Timmy onto the good list. That made Timmy think what did he do that made him on the naughty list?

Today we are going to the water park. Everyone likes going to the water park because of the massive water slide. But I am not here to tell you about the water slide. I am here to tell you about the terrible incident. It was just like a normal day and the water park we were having fun and boom just like that it turned to the worst day ever.

5 second rule vape project

In Health we were set a task that required us to work together and communicate with people. we got a question from Miss Aiken we got when did vaping become a big thing in NZ? Our questions were about what is in vaping.The topic that I chose was vaping. Firstly we had to pick our group the decide what we wanted to do in order to teach people about vaping and our chosen question. My group chose to recreate the 5 second rule but it didn't work out how we wanted it to. The first thing that we did was make the questions and made the game board. from there we made our rules and we got people to play it. we did this to teach others about vaping. It was challenge when the game did not work out but we compromised. Next time i will make sure we make sure our game works out.

house plan project

Kia ora for this whole term we have been studying ohm's law for most of it we made a house plan. Our aim was to learn about ohm’s law. We also learnt voltage, current and resistance. First we had to make our house plan then we made our circuit and tested it out and added it together. Then in math we added the area. Current is a flow of electricity which results from the ordered directional movement of electrically charged particles. Voltage is an electromotive force or potential difference expressed in volts. Resistance means the refusal to accept or comply with something. I did enjoy the project. It was fun doing the current and the voltage and also figuring out the area. I would make my work neater. I  made my house with seven bulbs, maybe challenging myself to use less.

pontoon bridges

Kia ora today we had to answer these questions about pontoon bridges.

Why were the pontoon bridges made?

An early pontoon bridge was constructed in 480 bce by Persian engineers to transport Xerxes' invading army across the Hellespont (Dardanelles). ... Because they obstruct navigation, floating bridges are limited in nonmilitary applications, yet several long-span floating bridges have been built in modern times.

How are they built?

Pontoons were formed by simply lashing several barrels together, by rafts of timbers, or by using boats. Each bridge section consisted of one or more pontoons, which were manoeuvred into position and then anchored underwater or on land.
